Rapper Bobby Shmurda Facing More Prison Time After Girlfriend Allegedly Smuggles Knife Into Prison

Bobby Shmurda, the Brooklyn-based “Hot N—-” rapper, allegedly tried to have his girlfriend smuggle a knife into prison while he waits to face charges that could send him prison for 25 years.

Bobby Shmurda Facing More Jail Time

Shmurda, 20, is now facing an additional seven years behind bars after his girlfriend Kimberly Rousseau, 18, allegedly tried to smuggle a knife to him at Riker’s Island, reported the New York Daily News. During the prison visit, Rouseeau is said to have pulled a disguised “sharp metal object” from her bra to give to Shmurda. If convicted of promoting prison contraband and criminal possession of a weapon, Rosseau could face up to seven years in prison herself.

Shmurda, whose real name is Ackquille Pollard, was arrested last December in New York City as part of an ongoing investigation into street violence and drug trafficking in Brooklyn. He was taken into custody after leaving a recording studio in Midtown Manhattan near Radio City Music Hall.

Along with several members of his GS9 crew, Shmurda is facing 101 charges, including reckless endangerment, criminal possession of a weapon, conspiracy to commit murder in the second degree and criminally using drug paraphernalia.

Shmurda was previously arrested back in June of last year on a felony gun charge and again in October for a misdemeanor marijuana charge. Despite his legal setbacks, Shmurda managed to put out a pair of tracks that broke into the Hot 100 – “Hot N—A” (which popularized the Shmoney dance) and “Bobby B—h.” His debut EP Shmurda She Wrote was released last November.

“My music is straight facts,” Pollard told New York Magazine last year. “There are a lot of gangsters in my ‘hood.’”
